As the old saying goes, children are the enemies of their parents in their past lives.

After a lifetime of hard work for one or more people who are only related to oneself by blood, in the end, not only may you not get anything in return, but you may also have a stiff relationship with the other party because of some trivial things in life.

In this way, this old adage does not seem to be true.

It's a pity that in Han Yu's eyes, this sentence does not apply to himself.

For most parents in the world, their children are creditors in their past lives, wrongdoers who come to collect debts in this life, but Han Yu feels that he is not a creditor, because he doesn't seem to have received anything from his parents, and because the man who compensated him for his parents has never owed him anything.

There was no such great blood relationship between them, and they were unmasked strangers when they met.

But it was the man who had nothing to do with him, who brought him back to his home in the middle of that summer night.

So in Han Yu's opinion, his adoptive father, his father, is a greater existence than the so-called parents.

Father Jin's cautious words seemed to pull the atmosphere in this small private room to freezing point in an instant.

However, Han Yu didn't show any unusual emotions after hearing this.

As if he hadn't heard this, he picked up the steaming bowl of kelp soup in front of him and took a shallow sip.

Well, it's okay to be salty, but in fact kelp soup is like that, and it doesn't taste good.

"My dad was very nice to me. ”

Silently evaluating the first bite of food he tasted after returning to China in his heart, Han Yu said coldly to Father Jin who was sitting opposite him, his face was calm, as if he was answering a very simple question.

After speaking, he took another sip of the soup in the bowl, this time taking a big gulp, and after putting down the bowl, he sniffed, his eyes scanned the dishes on the table, and added without raising his head: "Very good." ”

“…… That's good. ”

Hearing this, Father Jin nodded as if he was stunned, and then he pursed his lips imperceptibly and muttered to himself: "That's good." ”

Soon, Father Jin took a deep breath, cheered up, looked at Han Yu who was pulling the vegetables with chopsticks, and couldn't help but say with implicit concern: "I rarely cook, how about you taste it." If not, I know there's a good soup and rice nearby, so I'll buy you one. ”

"No need. Han Yu, who took back his chopsticks, shook his head, "I tasted it, and it tasted good." ”

"That's right. Father Jin nodded, and then seemed a little speechless.

Han Yu seemed to see his thoughts, so he took a bowl of rice and opened the lid, while explaining lightly: "I'm just a little curious about what the dishes you cook look like." ”

He said this very naturally and plainly, and Father Jin moved his lips when he heard it, but in the end, he nodded without saying anything.

After a while, perhaps it was the dull atmosphere that made people more restless, Father Jin looked left and right, and silently brought a bowl of rice from the side, and lowered his head to eat.

For a while, only the occasional touch of dishes and chopsticks remained in the private room.

No one spoke, and the two people sitting opposite each other were eating their own meals, and neither of them took the initiative to deal with each other.

It's just that if you observe it carefully, you will find that Father Jin, who was eating with his head down, never stretched his chopsticks to those dishes that Han Yu had clamped a lot.

"Smack. ”

Suddenly, two pairs of chopsticks collided.

Father Jin simply put his chopsticks back, "You can eat." ”

Han Yu hadn't touched that dish just now, and he ate it until he had only about the amount of chopsticks.

"No need. ”

Han Yu also put the chopsticks back.

"I'm just a little curious about the taste, and I think you like to eat this. ”

Father Jin was silent for a moment, and then he made the first and possibly last bold move of the night.

He picked up the last dish on the plate, stood up, put it in Han Yu's bowl, and said repeatedly, "You eat!"

Han Yu was stunned, he looked at the dishes in his bowl, and then at Father Jin, who had already sat back and continued to eat with his head down, he was silent for a while, and then lowered his head again to eat.

Once again, the two men found themselves in a situation where no one was silent.

Only this time, it didn't take long for Han Yu's voice to sound low.

"I wanted to say thank you, but I couldn't say it. ”

The chopsticks in Father Jin's hand didn't stop, and he said with a dull head: "It's right that I didn't say it...... Nothing needs to be said. ”

"You and I are having dinner here, didn't the family say anything?"

Han Yu, who was eating with his head down, suddenly asked.

Father Jin looked up, but the look on his face didn't show much more panic, and he said to Han Yu, "When I was in the kitchen just now, I called. ”

"What did you say?" Han Yu ate the dish with a calm face.

I said...... I'm having dinner with you. ”

Suddenly, the action of eating stopped.

Han Yu also raised his head, looked at Father Jin, and asked, "'Me'?"

"Yes. Father Kim replied affirmatively, "I told her, I'll have dinner with you." ”

"Who is 'I'?"

Han Yu suddenly put down his chopsticks and sat upright looking at Father Kim.

"I told her ......"

Father Kim's voice was very soft, as if he had spoken a sentence that had been hidden in his heart for many years.

"You are who you are...... My son. ”

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the private room was noticeably changing.

The two people present looked at each other for a long time as if they were still, and then Han Yu suddenly lowered his head, picked up the chopsticks and picked up the food in his mouth again: "You should hide it from her." ”

"I don't want to hide it from her. Father Jin said without thinking, "It's not good for you, and it's not good for her." ”

"But I'd rather you go and try to hide it from her. ”

Han Yu's words silenced Father Jin.

They both knew who this "she" meant, and they both knew that it was this "she" who left a moat between the two of them many years ago that seemed to be indelible.

It was a man to be loved and hated.

"What about the others? Wouldn't the others find it strange?"

After a while, Han Yu asked without raising his head.

Father Jin shook his head, "I guess I'll tell them where I'm going to have dinner." ”

"At this point, I think she's doing a better job than you. ”

Father Jin couldn't help frowning and said, "The child is different. ”

Han Yu glanced up at him and said, "I'm not the same either?"

Father Jin was a little speechless for a moment.

"Either just hide it from the end, don't make one person sad, or simply tell the whole thing and everyone bears it together. Aren't the other two, except for the youngest one, already adults?"

"Do you want me to tell them everything?" asked Father Kim suddenly.

Han Yu raised his head again, for some reason, he seemed to see a faint urgency in Father Jin's eyes.

For no reason, he understood something, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but pull up a smile that I didn't know whether it was mockery or bitterness.

"No need. ”

His words made Father Jin slightly stunned.

"I'm not here this time, it's not what you think, I never intended to take anything from you, and I didn't intend to squeeze into a house that threw me out more than ten years ago. I'm here just to meet you. I wanted to do this a few years ago, but unfortunately I didn't have the courage at that time, and now, I'm worried that if I don't do it again, I don't know if I have a chance in the future, so I will appear in front of you. ”

Speaking of this, Han Yu looked at Father Jin very calmly, his eyes and expression were indescribably calm.

"Just let them live their lives where they are. There are some things that you don't say at the beginning, and you don't need to say them later. My original intention was that it would be enough for you to see me alone, and even that person didn't need to know about my presence. After all, you were the one who was at fault in the first place, didn't you?"

Father Jin didn't speak, and then bitterness gradually crept all over his face.

"I was full, I felt good about the meal, and I didn't have any regrets. Don't worry, it's only this time, I won't be here in the future. ”

Han Yu put down his chopsticks, stood up, and picked up the coat he had put on the side, "I'm leaving." Forget it goodbye...... There should be no chance of seeing each other again. ”

"You ......"

At this time, Father Kim, who was sitting in the seat, spoke. He turned his head to look at the tall figure who had walked to the door, and asked hesitantly, "Are you from Seoul?" ”

"Yes. Han Yu nodded disappreciatively, "What's wrong with this?"

Father Kim said hesitantly, "Taeyeon is also in Seoul now...... Do you know this?"

"Yes, I also know that she is an entertainer. A smile appeared on the corner of Han Yu's mouth, "But what's the matter? Do you want to say anything that I can take care of each other with her? Would you like to see me go to her?"

In an instant, Father Jin's breath seemed to stagnate.

Han Yu shook his head and laughed, "Don't worry, I know she's a great artist, but I didn't plan to appear in front of her." ”

With that, he put his hand on the doorknob and prepared to go out.

"Let's go find it. ”

Suddenly, a whisper from behind him paused his steps.

"It's okay...... Go find it. What can't you do to see her?"

Father Jin bowed his head and muttered to himself as if he was relieved, "If you want, go find her." And also...... Feel free to come to me as long as you want. I...... Would love to see you at any time. ”

Han Yu's hand was on the doorknob, and after a few seconds of pause, he opened the door without saying a word and walked out.

Nothing was left.

As he just said, no goodbye.

Father Kim, who remained in the private room, smiled bitterly, he reached out and touched his pocket, and then took out something.

When I opened my palm, I saw that it was a cigarette that had been bent and wrinkled.
